The San Jose Sharks are horror-bad

Not one NHL level player in that group. I honestly struggle to see how they are meant to rebuild a D corps from 0 good players to 6 with no support whatsoever for any new and promising youngsters.

Even with all the tanking plans, this will cause sizable issues down the line. What message does this send to Eklund, Bordeleau and co.? How are you meant to find your goalie, when nobody can succeed behind that abomination of a team?
The dark side of Free agency is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be... unnatural.
 
Has San Jose Taken on any cap dumps for trades?

I can’t remember all their trades
They should be blasting out messages to all teams we’ll take on bad contracts.

Now my Demko shutout is ruined with a meaningless late goal.

This team can’t do anything right

If I'm Tomas Hertl I'd request a trade after tonight and after these first 10 games.


Dude is literally on an island. He and Duclair are the only two players that aren't 4th line/bottom pairing caliber or worse on that entire roster.
Couture is but he’s hurt.
 
The problem with being this bad is you really shouldn't even have any of the good young players on the team. Eklund is just going to get discouraged and develop bad habits. Instead of training in a few months he'll just be sitting in his apartment eating ice cream and playing Fortnite like me.

The problem is their vets have long terms, high cap hits, and NMC, so they are impossible to sell off. We would have to give away picks for people to take them.

I just looked. Couture Vlasic and Hertl deals are ugly. They’d have to retain and take cap dumps.

Hertl deals is way too long to retain.

I would have taken vlasic on the isles but at 2 more years and 7mil cap that’s rough. Would have to retain 50%

Vlasic couldn't make a junior high school team anymore. You wouldn't want him anyway.
